Researchers say that massages may be a good way to boost couples’ physical and mental well-being.
Researchers from Northumbria University in the United Kingdom came to their findings by studying couples who engaged in a 3-week massage course.
Lead researcher Sayuri Naruse and her colleague Dr. Mark Moss found that the course led to significant benefits; both giving and receiving a massage led to a reduction in stress and improvements in well-being in each partner.
The researchers recently presented their findings at the British Psychological Society’s Annual Conference 2017, held in the U.K.
According to the American Massage Therapy Association, at least 19 percent of people in the United States received at least one massage between July 2015 and July 2016.
